Jesus continued praying that we maybe perfectly one that the world may know that you sent Him and that God loves Jesus disciples exactly the same way He loves Jesus.
Are you a true disciple of Jesus, one who continues in His word? John 8:31, One who denies his own will and everyday chooses to do God's will, Luke 9:23, and one who loves Jesus supremely, more that parents and siblings and friends, more that your own self, one who have given up his grip in everything he possess and is willing to lose anything for Jesus' sake, Luke 14:26-33. If you are such, God loves you in exactly the same way He loved Jesus. If this is true, for the true disciple, not just anyone who claims to be a Christian, the God will do for you what He did for Jesus while He was on earth. He will protect you from premature death before finishing your assignment, in other words, you are immortal until your work is done, you cannot die before you finish Gods purpose for your life. God will give you all the gifts you need to serve Him, not all the gifts you want, but the gifts you need to serve His purpose. He will give you all the wisdom you need to face every situation that comes your way. He will give you all the health and strength that you need to fulfill His purpose. He will give you all the counsel and guidance you'll need. He will give the fellowship of brothers and sisters that you need, He will give you all the encouragement and warnings that you need.
He will provide all your needs, whether material, emotional, psychological or spiritual.
Are a true disciple, are you continuing to keep Jesus commands? You must first of all know them by studying the gospel especially, are you walking the way of self denial, denying your own will and ways, to do God's will and walk His way? Do you love Jesus more than Father, mother, wife, husband, child, brother sister, and friends? Have you listen your grip on your possessions that you will always be ready to lose anything for Jesus sake?
Jesus prays for these disciples to be with Him and share in His glory, and be with Him for He was loved from before the foundations of the world.
Even you, God chose you before Genesis 1:1. Eph 1:4-5, tells us that God chose us from before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and blameless before Him in love. He predestined us in love to be adopted as His sons through Jesus and the brought great delight to His heart.
The world doesn't recognise Jesus but His disciples do.
It is in knowing the name of God that we experience God's love. His name is Faithful, provider, protecter, healer, shield, just and righteous.....
Jesus reveals God's name to us and it becomes a reality in our lives as we experience it practically.
You are blessed to be a blessing
